Samara Mejia Hernandez
Chingona Ventures
Chingona Ventures is an early-stage venture capital firm focused on investing in founders who hail from overlooked backgrounds. Samara Hernandez founded the firm to be a founder’s first institutional check. As one of the industry’s few Latina founded firms, Chingona has established itself as a leader amongst diverse led venture capital investors. Chingona launched its inaugural $52 million fund in 2023. Considered an inspiration to the next generation of Latinx founders and investors, Hernandez co-founded the Latinx Founders Collective to bring together Latinx founders, investors, and community leaders to support the entrepreneurial community.
